Not gonna sugarcoat it - this is weak. Companies don’t offer this solution that’s better because it’s “complex”.
This is like when engineers say something is going to take a long time because “there’s a lot of moving parts”.
The reality, IMO, is that employees do not have a seat at the table when it comes to negotiating ownership shares. And, predictably, they end up with the worst part of the deal.
- jariel 6y agoComplexity is absolutely a reason. Every time a company offers something 'non standard' - it's a huge legal expense and risk. Very few startups can afford such things. Like complexity in code scales exponentially, so too does potential legal outcomes. There are a lot of bespoke things each company could do in light of specific situations, but it's just not worth it.
